Get in the Game

The Queensland Government’s Get in the Game initiative supports sport and recreation at the grassroots level.

Get in the Game comprises three funding programs – Get Started, Get Going and Get Playing – designed to get more people, especially children and young people, playing sport and involved in recreation activities.

Information on the three Get in the Game programs is provided below.

Get Started – Funding to help kids participate

Round 5 – vouchers are fully allocated

Get Started assists children and young people who can least afford or may otherwise benefit from joining a sport or recreation club. Eligible children and young people can apply for a voucher of up to $150 to help pay for club membership and/or participation fees. The vouchers can be redeemed at a sport or recreation club registered with the program.

Get Playing – Funding to improve facilities

Round 3 is now closed for applications

Get Playing provides up to $100,000 in funding to assist local sport and recreation organisations with facility development so more Queenslanders are encouraged to become involved in the sport or recreation activity of their choice.
